I want 4.18.4 ! Please help me!

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint
, , , , ,
1

I made a game for mobile with only blueprints.
It’s finished last month.
But It was rejected by apple.
Reason was “do not use MTLdebugdevice”.
I heard that it’s fixed on git hub.
And it fixed on 4.19 too.
But I’m using plug-ins that doesn’t compatible with 4.19 version.
Code fix was simple. Just add two lines.
So I tried rebuild engine.
It needs so many space of hard drive and so much time.
But I can’t build my project successfully.
It makes plugins problems on starting with new editor what i rebuild 4.18.
And I don’t know It’s fixed MTLdebugdevice problem.

So, Please patch for 4.18 !
I need fixed 4.18 not 4.19 preview !

you can build it from source code here :slight_smile:
https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/4.18

3

need C++ code to generate solution for Visual Studio or Xcode (for Mac) :smiley:
and complie it again :smiley: i used this version is 4.18.4 from source can pass appstore :wink:
what plugin do you use??

4

Thank you for your answer.
I tried build source code and success to build.
But when I open my project on new build engine, Plug-ins does not load.
Because of mismatch version between engine and plug-ins.
Is there any way for set version information correctly?

5

Please explain in more detail.
I’m newbie of unreal engine.
And I’m not good at English.
Is “Generate solution for Visual Studio” means GenerateProjectFiles.bat ?
If not, where can I find generate solution or how?

6

GenerateProjectFiles.bat will create ue4.sln :slight_smile: this solution will build UE4Editor
i mean you right click on you “Your Project”.uproject and click “Switch Unreal Engine Version” and chose your custom build for this, i will generate new solution for you to rebuild :slight_smile:

Thank you. But My plug-ins are didn’t work.

Error dialog is…

Missing Plugin

Binaries for the ‘UniversalMobileAds’ plugin are missing or incompatible with the current engine version.

Woud you like to disable it? You will no longer be able to open assets that were created with it.

I think the problem is my new editor program have not correct version.
(Editor works fine. But plugins from markets are doesn’t work.)

8

you can recomplie this plugin and make it work :slight_smile:
4.18 all of version can work with it :smiley:

9

Is there a way to set version correctly?
If fake the version of editor, Maybe I don’t need recompile all plugins.

10

no, every version complie from source must be recomplie, they will create some dll file(on windows) or dylib(mac) to set project and plugin compatible with this version :slight_smile:
if plugin can work with 4.18 any version complie from source of 4.18 can work with this plugin :slight_smile:

11

How can I open plugins on visual studio?

12

I find this.

And I compiled two plugins.
But only 1 fail.

Error message is

like this.

Maybe It needs remote build with iOS. My Mac can remote build with windows unreal editor. But It can’t run unreal editor on mac self (It’s old model.)
Do you know how can I remote build with automation tool?

13

It’s not solved to me.
But I’m giving up.

I don’t know how can I make a custom build and use correctly.

Maybe It’s easy to C++ programmers.
But It’s too difficult to blueprint only worker.

Anyway Thanks alot ‘WindyStrife’. You are so kind.
